Spider Vein Removal

Windward Medispa offers effective, minimally invasive treatments to reduce the appearance of spider veins and vascular lesions on the face and legs. Our medical director, Dr. Sonny Wong, is a board-certified cardiologist (FACC) and Registered Phlebology Sonographer (RPhS) — a rare combination of vascular expertise and aesthetic skill that sets our vein treatments apart from typical med spa offerings.

Sclerotherapy

Starting at $375

Sclerotherapy is the gold-standard treatment for spider veins on the legs. A sclerosing solution is injected directly into the affected vein using a fine needle, causing the vein wall to collapse and seal shut. The body then naturally reroutes blood through healthier veins, and the treated vein gradually fades over 3–6 weeks. Most patients see significant improvement after one to three sessions. The procedure takes 30–45 minutes with no downtime — you can return to normal activities the same day.

IPL Laser Therapy

Starting at $175

Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy targets vascular lesions and redness on the face and body without needles. The light energy is absorbed by the hemoglobin in the blood vessel, causing it to coagulate and be reabsorbed by the body over the following weeks. IPL is particularly effective for facial spider veins, rosacea-related redness, and small vascular lesions that are difficult to treat with sclerotherapy.

Why choose Windward Medispa for vein treatment? Dr. Wong's background in cardiovascular medicine provides a depth of vascular knowledge that most aesthetic practices cannot match. As a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology and a Registered Phlebology Sonographer, he understands vein physiology at a level that ensures safe, effective treatment outcomes. Windward Medispa is part of Windward Vein, Heart and Medispa — combining cardiac care with cosmetic expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment where a solution is injected directly into spider veins, causing them to collapse and gradually fade over several weeks. It is the gold-standard treatment for spider veins on the legs and has been used safely for decades.

How long does it take for spider veins to fade after treatment?

After sclerotherapy, spider veins typically begin to fade within 3–6 weeks. Some veins may take up to 3 months to fully disappear. IPL treatment results also develop gradually over several weeks as the body reabsorbs the treated vessels.

Is spider vein removal painful?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Sclerotherapy involves small injections that feel like a mild pinch. IPL laser therapy uses light energy with no needles required — most patients describe it as a warm snapping sensation. Both treatments are well-tolerated without anesthesia.
